Mother of Iowa girl doesn’t want details on death

EVANSDALE (AP) — The mother of one of two Iowa cousins who disappeared last summer and whose bodies were recently found said she doesn’t want to know how her daughter was killed.

Heather Collins told Waterloo television station KWWL that she doesn’t need to know what anyone did to her daughter, Elizabeth Collins, because it’s in God’s hands.

“I don’t need to know how she was murdered,” she said. “I don’t need to know what anybody has done to her, because that’s in God’s hands. All I know is that I don’t have my daughter here anymore and she is up in heaven with our savior. That’s all I need to know.”
